How nice

So, what are you doing at the moment?

TV, AMV's, and waiting to see if my friend decides to txt me. You?

I'm just listening to some music while surfing the Internet.

My roommate is playing DBZ:BT3.

Sounds fun in college.

It is as long as you have your priorities straight.

As long as you finish your work doing any leisure activities, then you'll be alright.

It's also important to have a social life because you'll meet a bunch of interesting people.

Hm, sounds easy enough.

Unfortunately, it's not.

You'll always be tempted to go to a party instead of studying for a test. I have to deal with that almost all the time because there's a party every week at my college. The only parties that I go are the ones with nonalcoholic beverages, and I only go to them after I finished all of my studying.

Peer pressure is everywhere. You might be pressure to go off-campus during the night (which is bad at my college), do drugs, drink alcohol, or any other things that you'll regret sooner or later.

There are plenty of other things that you should be aware of, but the examples that I've given you are the most important ones. 👆

😑 Wow, that is a lot...But I've been able to avoid all of those things so far. The whole alcohol & drug thing I'd avoid because of my own personal reasons (besides living). Plus I'm not a big fan of parties, to loud for me. Thanks for the heads up. 😊 Glad your able to avoid such negative things.

You're welcome, dude. 👆

If you have any questions about college, just ask me. 😉

Gotcha. Um, this may seem dumb but you sleep when you want to right?

Of course, but it isn't wise to stay up real late when you have an early class the next morning. The only time that I stay up late is when my first class is in the late afternoon. If I have an early class, then I'll make sure to get enough sleep. I can stay up as long as I want to right now since I never have class on weekends, unless I have to take a final exam.

Also, if you stay up late, you have to stay in your dorm at all times. At a certain time, the RAs (resident advisors) will make sure that the students are all in their rooms. For me and the rest of the students, we have to be in our dorms by 12:00 at night. It's for our own safety.

Don't worry, that wasn't a stupid question. 😉

Thanks, I guess if it's for your safety a curfew isn't all that bad.

Exactly. As long as I'm safe, I'm okay with having a curfew.

Besides, anything can happen on a college campus.

True. Tell me, have you seen that "Forbidden Kingdom" movie?

No, what is it about?

Well, its about how the main character (a kid named Jason) gets sent into the past to bring the Monkey King his staff so that he can continue fighting the Jade Emperor. Along the way Jason sides with Jacky Chan, Jet-Li, and some girl. I'll stop here so I don't ruin too much.

Oh, yeah. I heard of that movie before. 😄

I would love to see it since it has both Jackie Chan and Jet Li in it.

I'm sure you'll like it. I saw it after school today it was cool.

Yeah, I'll try to see it.

Based on the commercials, it looks great.
